Romans 6:23
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Morning by morning, new mercies I see. For all I ever needed, my God, You have done all for me. Great is Your faithfulness today and forevermore.
When you sin, you first and foremost die spiritually, which is a separation from God. Once you are separated from God the father of evil, the devil himself moves in and begin to unleash onslaught which if not recognised and properly handled, leads to physical death.
John 10vs10a clearly tells us that the thief comes in with a 3 fold assignment, which is to steal, kill, and finally destroys.
I will not be his victim in Jesus name.
The second part of our lead Bible text for today, tells us that, God's gift to us is Eternal life through Jesus Christ.
Glory to God!
Jesus paid the debt of the load of sin that you and I committed. This HE did when God gave Him pay the ransome which reconcile mankind to God and restore the spiritual disconnection, of man from God.
John 10vs10b clarifies it more when it says that, " I (Jesus) am come that you may have life and have it abundantly."
To enjoy life here on earth, and eternal life in the hereafter, we must accept and appreciate the sacrificial work of redemption which Jesus did on the cross at Calvary.
Beloved, it is time we face reality and call a spade a spade. Let us stop this rat race of acquisitions and unnecessary rivalry of wealth pursuit. Confirm the state of your soul and ask yourself this question now, if God calls me home today, where will I spend eternity?
If eternity isn't important, God wouldn't send Jesus to come die for you and I.
My prayer is that you and I will not miss out on the gift of Eternal Life which God provided for us through Jesus Christ.
Have you accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and personal Saviour? You have to do it because it is very important.
Act 4vs10-12 tells us that there is no other name whereby man can be saved ( to enjoy this eternal life ) except through Jesus who was used as a Lamb for the sacrifice to pay for the sin of mankind once and for all.
The good thing about this is that anytime you get convinced and decides to believe and accept Jesus is fine but don't delay it any further. You can do it anywhere.
Just sincerely confess and forsake all your sins, ask for mercy as you repent genuinely so thar the Blood of Jesus can wash you clean of every unrighteousness.
Incase you were once born again but you know deep within you that you have backslided because you are still struggling to overcome some sins, rededicate your life again to God now.
This we must do so that we won't miss out on this gift of Eternal Life.
God alone is my Source of health, love, peace, joy, and strength.
MEMORY VERSE
John 10:10
The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
PRAYERS
Heavenly Father thank You for having us in mind in Your redemption plans. Help us to be full partakers of this gift of Eternal Life in Christ Jesus.
